Wasn't it? Wasn't it one of those boring work parties? Where was it that we met that time that I met you, when I met you? I meant it was nice to meet you the time that I met you. We've met before, quite a few times actually I find myself improvising a lot more and recording my live improvisations, then using these as my final takes for my productions.No, I'm sorry, I think you've mistaken me for somebody else “It’s allowed me to speed up my creative process and not become stagnant by mechanically dialling in automation. “I find myself using the Seaboard Block more and more in my writing process, particularly when I’m writing lead melodies,” she said. I also used the Loop Block as a controller to arm and unarm channels, which let me control multiple synths and create a very smooth live set.” Since this first show in September 2018, she has become one of the most proficient BLOCKS producer-performers anywhere in the world. “I had two Seaboard Blocks for playing lead melodies, and two Lightpads for drum pads and clip-launching AND to launch my bass patches and samples throughout the drops in my tracks.

The other had blue and yellow squares to scroll through different patterns. One Block had red and green squares to start and stop different sequences.
